Schalon Baysinger scored on a layup to break a tie with 23 seconds left and Ramonique Redding sank two clutch free throws to Saturday to give Taft College a 62-58 Central Conference basketball victory over Porterville.

TC overcame a halftime deficit to take an 8-point lead before the visiting Pirates went on a 9-0 run to regain the lead at 56-55. The team traded baskets before Bezait Anbesse tied it at 58 with a free throw with 50 seconds left.

Redding stole the ball and dished it off to Baysinger who scored her only points of the game.
